Love and Tolerance
Part 5: The Lost Crusaders
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThomas grumbled to himself and rolled off the table trying not to be noticed as he tries to sneak out of the house “....Um....I....I am sorry to bother you....but um....please stay here......if that's alright with you...." Flutter Shy said, quietly. *Rainbow Dash glanced up and flew straight in front of him, landing knee high* "Whoa, whoa whoa! Where do you think ~YOUR~ going?" Tom rubbed his arm, “Um....No where...? Rainbow snorted, “that’s RIGHT! Now march yourself in to that living room and lay back down......”in a brief moment, there was flashing red and blue lights as the police sirens could be easily distinguished "COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mike jumped and fell off the table "WHAT THE--?!" he looked around frantically then looked out the window a little. "Why are there cops here?! We didn't do anything!” Pinkie Pie was immediately amused with the bright colors, She slowly trotted to the police car, she didn’t mind the noise Pinkie stares at the lights in awe, not moving a muscle.
Rainbow Dash face hoofed and pushed Pinkie to the floor “What are you DOING?!” She hissed. "WE KNOW YOUR IN THERE COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP AND WE WILL NOT HAVE TO USE BRUTE FORCE,” Pinkie Pie immediately snaps out of it as she hears police dogs barking and siren wailing. "I-I’m s-sc-scared" Pinkie managed to choke out
Mike wanted to take out his collapsible samurai sword but he didn't want to hurt the cop or that would make things worse. He flash stepped, quickly grabbing Pinkie and ran back inside within a blink of an eye. Thomas hunkered down. "JUST AMINUET OFFICER!" he called from inside the house. He looked around. Flutter Shy hid behind Rainbow. “O....oh my....it’s so....loud!” Pinkie was shocked when she was picked up. again, she didn't move as Mike put her down she slowly managed to say "Wh-whats going on?" Voice accelerating "And who are they!? They don't have the right to do that! Pinkie blabbered.
Thomas looked around, Rainbow; I need you and Flutter Shy to play dead. Mike, follow my lead. We need to make it seem like we are bringing out giant stuffed animals. Rainbow opened her mouth in protest* WHAT?!!!!!!!!!! Mike petted Pinkie’s cotton mane softly. "Shhh... calm down, we'll get out of this" he then blinked "you want us to do what?” Pinkie was calmed down as he pet her soft mane she felt comfortable with the humans and stayed quiet for a while listening..."YOU HAVE THIRTY SECONDS! YOU ARE TRESPASSING ON PRIVATE PROPERTY!" Tom looked around once more If we do anything else, how on earth will we explain a flying cyan horse, a pink, sugar high horse, and a....um....flutter shy's ears drooped “please don't say it...” Mike finished his sentence "a very nice, sweet and caring pony?"
"Yes!" He said quietly "TEN SECONDS" The policemen called. Mike cracked his knuckles and picked up Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy, "alright girls, you know what to do." he whispered to them. "Let’s do this thing!" Pinkie squirmed a bit "What? What are we doing?!" The pony said confusingly Thomas got up and picked up Rainbow "Hey, what the?!" “SHHH!” Thomas hissed. He wrapped his arm under her belly and hoisted her under his arm, holding her, like an eight pound toy dog. Thomas walked out of the house, as the officers lowered their weapons at the sight. Pie Pinkie tried not to squirm and giggle at the police “They looked funny” Mike shushed Pinkie then smiled softly, nodding to them. "Just playing with our stuffed My Little Ponies right Tommy?" Thomas face blushed even more. “Ah, just trying some ventriloquism. Why yes, Pinkie Pie, they do look funny,” the officer's mouths dropped open "Let me GO!" Rainbow Dash kicked free and flew high into the clouds. “Uh..............DONT LET THAT KITE GET AWAY!” Mike's eyes widened and with one quick movement Mike threw a string around Dash's tail and grabbed it like a kite "I got it! I got it!" Rainbow looked down at Mike, “HEY!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” Toms face flustered a deep red as the police officers burst out laughing "That's pretty good! Looks like there is no harm here, we saw your car in the middle of the road and thought something bad was happening, we will be on our way" *the police office laughed again, "Bronies" As soon as the police left Pinkie exploded into laughter. Mike sighed as he set down Pinkie, cracking his neck. “That was too close” "Hahaha! I couldn't hold it in! Did you see when...?” Her voice trailed off again. Rainbow Dash glided to the ground, “Hey! What gives?!” she demanded. Flutter Shy looked to the ground and kept quiet "....That was....scary"
Pinkie Pie stops laughing and notices... the fillies missing. "Hey where are the Cutie Mark Crusaders?" Pinkie questioned. Thomas he looked around, noticing hoof prints going back into the forest “Oh, No!” Mike's eyes widened "oh crap..." Tom ran to follow the hoof prints “Not good, not good, not good,” Pinkie quickly gallops and follows along Thomas while Rainbow takes to the skies once more and hovers over the forest. “I DON'T SEE THEM!” Flutter Shy, bites her lip as tears begin to fill her eyes, “What if....what if....a monster ate them?” Mike shook his head "impossible, I've been in the forest dozens of times, there's no monsters so there's nothing to worry about" he told Fluttershy as he petted her mane. She smiled and rubbed her soft head against his leg “o...o....okay..... “Rainbow continued to soar through the sky* I SEE THEM!!!! Pinkie gallops over to Flutter Shy, "Fluttershy, its ok!” she smiled and hummed the “No Fear Song” Mike pet her some more then looked up at Dash "WHERE ARE THEY LOCATED AT?!" he asked, calling back to her. Rainbow pointed a hoof “It looks like their headed for the Skate Park!” Pinkie Pie interrupted, “What’s that? Is it dangerous? Well hurry! Let’s go!” she gallops in Rainbows direction, “we’ll take my car,” Thomas said opening the hatch-back to his vehicle. Fluttershy gently glided in, and curled up in some blankets, her pink mane flowed over her face as she knelt down. Pinkie stood in front of car “Uh, what is that?” she asked in her usual bubbly tone. Pinkie Pie licked the hood of the car. “Bleh, it tastes funny!”
Mike shook his head and got in the car "as long as they’re not in the way of other people skating and riding their bikes they should be fine" he muttered. “It's a car. It runs on gas and goes VROOOOOOOOOOOOOM, and of course it tastes funny, it’s not edible,” “Hmm Okay! She hesitantly climbed into the back of the car and nestled next down to Fluttershy. Pinkie Pie couldn’t help but hum a happy tune, but in her mind she was thinking: I am not sure about this.Thomas buckles his seat belt and pushed the airbag back into its spot “Get...IN.....THERE!!” Mike grabbed the hilt of his katana and with one swift hit with the butt end of the sword the airbag was pushed back in. Thomas started up the car, looked both ways and followed the Cyan Rainbow pony through the sky "Mike, you may not be worried about the filly's, but I am. What if other kids see them....how will they react?! Mike thought about it and his eyes widen "crap, I never thought of that, STEP ON IT!" Pinkie Pie felt the car accelerate, she loved the speed of how fast it was going. Pinkie stuck her head out the window "HEY THIS IS GOOD!" She said with wind blowing in her face.
Thomas he squealed his tired as black skid marks appeared on the pavement. He gritted his teeth as he went up and down hills. Mike grabbed Pinkie, holding her but also letting her stay in the same spot she was in, he just didn't want her to fall out. Tom slowed down at a stop sign as he glanced in the rear view mirror when he noticed the cop car behind him. "Oh, great!" Mike looked behind him and sighed, he held up his right hand which was just fake skin and under it was a robotic arm toward the cop. his original arm was cut off a long time ago and was replaced by a robotic limb. His hand illuminated as an orange florescent light emitted from his palm. Thomas continued to watch the police officers as they stared at the light. While the police officers were distracted, Thomas accelerated, squealing his tires while the orange residue seemed to dissipate from the air, rendering the police officers dazed and confused. Pinkie Pie Giggled. “Hey is that them? Pinkie tries to get a closer look but slips on the cars smooth finish. Mike gasped and grabbed Pinkie Pie's hoof. Pinkie gasps for breath for that 'mini heart attack moment'
"Thank you for saving me!!!!" Mike smiled softly "hey, no problem,” he sighed as he focused on driving. Fluttershy lay curled up shaking in the hatch back. Thomas sniffs the air as the faint aroma of flowers and cotton candy fill the car, “alright, who farted?” He chuckled. Pinkie continues scouting for the lost fillies, when she perked her ears to Thomas’ voice. "All I smell is cotton candy!" Pinkie replies as her stomach growled. He smiled softly, but was secretly worried for the fillies, hoping that they have been able to fit into society.
